CAMPAIGN 08: Shocking video about Barak Obama’s church
War in Context
… with attention to the unseen
I guess posting this video is intended to muddy the waters about Obama’s pastor Jeremiah Wright screaming “God damn America!” with the congregation cheering louder and louder every time he screamed it.
Obama sat in that same congregation for 20 years and never spoke a word of disapproval until he started running for President.
“God damn America!”
Not even a super con man like Obama can make it go away.
Is it “muddying the waters” to suggest that the clips of Rev Jeremiah Wright that have now been seen so widely might not provide the definitive perspective on what it means to belong to his congregation? In other words, are we to suppose that we can best understand this church and this pastor by knowing as little about them as possible?
